After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406 Familiar Feeling

Half an hour later, Michael arrived at my office. Even though I had already prepared myself mentally, I still couldn’t keep my heart steady when I saw him.

He was wearing a black suit and a cold expression, just like he did a year ago. The only difference was that he had an even colder aura around him.

His icy glare was making my skin crawl a little.

“Would you like some tea or coffee, Mr. Shaw?” I asked as I smiled at him.

“No need. I’m here today to tell you that you’re not going to get my partnership with Red Star. Don’t think that I didn’t know what you’re trying to do in the shadows.” He sounded cold in a professional manner.

The warning he gave had a hint of confidence in it.

My eyes flickered. I didn’t think that he would find out so quickly about the matter when we only had a meeting yesterday about taking Red Star away from Joyful Success. It seems like I’ve underestimated him.

Even though I was starting to panic a little, a plain smile persisted on my face. I wasn’t the person from a year ago anymore, so I should be able to control my emotions in front of him. “All is fair in love and war, Mr. Shaw. Those who are capable will be able to obtain what they want. It’s not unusual that our company wants to expand our business. Whether we can get Red Star’s partnership is our company’s matter. Don’t you think it’s inappropriate that you’re here to warn me?”

I still stared into Michael’s eyes with a smile. There wasn’t a hint of panic in my voice.

Shock and fury flashed past his eyes.

He stared back at me for a while before opening his mouth again and speaking in a plain tone. “You’ve changed a lot over the past year. Even your way of speaking is much more confident now. Are you still the Anna I knew?”

While there wasn’t a hint of emotion in his voice, it still wasn’t something I wanted to hear.

“I told you.” A hint of mockery was added to my smile as my stare became colder. “I’m no longer the Anna you knew from before. That person is already dead.” If I’m still the Anna you’re familiar with, I wouldn’t be sitting here, talking to you about business.

While fury burned in his eyes, calmness was present in mine.

I had no intention of showing him any sign of weakness.

After a while, he stood up. I raised my head, thinking that he was finally going to leave out of anger.

It seemed like I wasn’t capable of changing my habit of thinking things in an optimistic manner. Instead of leaving, he walked around my desk and glared at me with increasing anger.

“What kind of relationship do you have with Nicholas? Why are the two of you staying with each other last night? Are you two living with each other?” Michael questioned with a deep voice.

I could tell he was trying to suppress his fury.
